    Great Dhoni

    Agreed, I'm for keeping Dhoni regardless of his batting.

    ***Official*** English Domestic Season 2008

    Godleman scores his 2nd FC ton. Seems a long time ago when many, including myself were proclaiming him as a future England player.

    Also, Shah and Patel are more Test qualified than ODI, while Bopara is 50/50.

    ***Official England in India***

    Bopara: yes he did have a poor first tour in possibly the toughest cricket environment in the world, but for the last two CC seasons he has been averaging above 60. Too many on here have written him of for life after the SL tour. Shah: more bloke has been knocking on the door for the last 3-5...

    Thats all right. He's in there for keeping.

    ***Official England in India***

    He's done what most players should do when dropped. Go back to domestic cricket and A tours and score runs.

    ***Official England in India***

    No one pushing hard? Shah, Bopara, Patel and you could possibly even throw up Key. It is well known that Bell has never taken a game by control in a career which is rather long (40 odd Tests now?). But the thing is that, as many posters have said thus far, he has never really been out of form...

    ***Official England in India***

    Most un-England team I've seen for a longtime. I think It will be: Cook Strauss Bell KP Collingwood Flintoff Prior Broad Anderson Sidebottom/Harmison Monty Would like to see: Cook Strauss Shah KP Bopara/Patel Flintoff Prior Anderson Sidebottom Monty Bowler 1

    ***Official*** Australia A and New Zealand A in India

    Fair point, and well said. But for me and many others on CW, the likes of Casson and McGain are more bowlers than spinners if you know what I mean? They don't really add anything to the side other than unused variation. I get the feeling if selected, Casson will be used like Giles of Harris...

    ***Official England in India***

    When is it? Would like to see Badri and Kaif in the Indian team and Shah in the England team. It will be interesting to see what exactly happeens with team selection. KP's highpoint in his career was the 05 Ashes where England won that with a 5 bowler attack and in his first Test as captain he...

    Missed Milestones

    Just a thread about milestones you would of liked if your favourite players did achieve them, but unfortunately, they shortly missed out. * Shaun Pollock scoring a ODI ton * Tendulkar, Viv, Jayasuriya, etc scoring an ODI double * Kallis scoring a Test double * Klusener not getting 200 ODI...

    ***Official*** Australia A and New Zealand A in India

    Good to see people are leaving the 'we always need a spinner attitude.' :) Also note, that Bollinger ended the Pura Cup season strongly and was selected for the Windies tour. Now he is playing for Australian in INDIA, depending upon his performances, he might be the 'spinner.'

    ***Official*** Australia A and New Zealand A in India

    I think it probably assists their hopes in winning the series sans spinners.

    ***Official*** South Africa in England

    Not particulary, played 2 20/20 games, but Owais Shah shined and ever since then, he has been particularly close to the team. But yeah, its wierd, we all complain about England's ODI side, but the chanes of any changes are minimal. The top 6 look settled and England selectors are probably...

    I want Ali to be a success as much as you, but unfortunately, he has been dismissed for a duck.

    ***Official*** South Africa in England

    If you recall, we've had this discussion before. Hall > Kemp. Disappointed that van der Wath never played more games for South Africa, I think he could of been a really good player (better than Kemp).

    ***Official*** South Africa in England

    South Africa don't seem to have that deep a talent pool. I don't think there are many better all-rounders than Morkel in South Africa ATM, but he isn't a bad option at the bottom of the order to score quick runs. The other current option looks like Philander who shouldn't be in the team yet.
